Simone Vagnozzi, co-coach of Jannik Sinner alongside Darren Cahill, spoke to the media outlet Ubitennis and revisited the Roland-Garros final lost by the Italian against Carlos Alcaraz.

According to him, the Parisian crowd supported the Spaniard and played a part in his victory. He explained: "I think the crowd played a key role in pushing Alcaraz forward, but not in penalizing Jannik.

Carlos knew very well how to win the supporters' backing, and he succeeded, but we can't use that as a decisive factor in the outcome.

There are times when playing against the crowd can also be a good thing, an extra motivation, and let's not forget that in Rome, it was Sinner who enjoyed the majority's support.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
